Hi there, How much customisation is possible with this template? Such as changing colours, fonts, size of components on the page, adding links to facebook/twitter, a map of the deal location, etc. Thanks for such informative info so far! Cheers

Hi Meg, I checked and there are 2 different color templates available. Once you install the template there is be a css file you can modify to change the theme colors other than the colors provided. If you want to change the font and font size there is a Groupon Template style switcher you can check out on their site here. Size of the components I believe is fixed. You can add links to social networking sites as well such as facebook, twitter, stumbleUpon etc – you can see example of that here. Hope that helps, Elaine

I am new to Joomla and installing/using templates. I was able to get Joomla and the template installed. However I can’t figure out how to get the site to look like the examples. Do you have any insight as to where I can go to learn how to setup the menus for the cities, add deals, google maps etc.

Did you purchase the Deal Plazza from TemplatePlazza? If so, there is a Groupon Template support forum you can read or post up on here. If you want (and trust me) I can take a quick look at it. You can send me your site details to my email address – me at enzolina dot com.

I did buy it from TemplatePlazza, unfortunately the forums are not that robust. I am slowly figuring this out, I think its just a matter of research, try, research again and so on. I would certainly send you the site but I have it locally hosted and don’t know how I would get it to you.

This theme does not allows business partners or other companies to login to add/manage their own coupons or deals. If you are looking for that feature, I would recommend using Wordpress CouponPress theme from PremiumPress, see my post here. It has a very extensive backend and other business partners can login and manage their own coupons or deals, you can sell advertising spots, set listing prices, view monthly sales charts and much more features. This Wordpress theme will basically make your website look like Savings.com.

Hi Mina, I haven’t found a Groupon Premium Wordpress theme yet. Believe me I’m searching everyday. I’m waiting for a good one to come out too. I will post the Wordpress theme up for sure when I find it. Thanks for your visit, Elaine

Hi, I would like to create a website like socialliving.com or wow.com or groupon.com and i do not have any programming background. I read your comments and I just wonder if I pay one of the Silver, Gold, Developer membership in the templateplazza.com can i create mysite. If you dont mind please let me know the steps I should take to create my site.(I am student that is why I want to take a safe step) Thank you so much…

Hi Reza, you can purchase the Silver membership that includes 4 months of unlimited support and to download the deal plaza template. After you purchase a web hosting you can upload the file to your account, unzip and install the quick version. You can read up on the post I created on the cost to create a Groupon site here. I can also post an article about quick installs later when I return from my trip. Hope that will help you too. Hope that answers your question, Elaine

Uploading and installing the Deals Plazza template from TemplatePlazza to your webhosting is really simple. If you have problems contact the TemplatePlazza support team and they will provide you will instructions on how to do it. If you ask me to do it for you, I will charge a fee. So the best (and cheapest) way, once you purchase the template is to contact their support team. Their support is completely free.

Hi Joe, Please refer to the TemplatePlazza support forum – there is a pre-sales forum that can help you answer those questions. Sorry I am not able to help you further with their template. Thanks for your visit, Elaine

Hi folks, I’m looking into Deal Plazza. Overhere in the Netherlands for online business credit card payments and PayPal are not very popular. The most common used and popular payment method in the Netherlands is ‘iDEAL’. It is more or less a ‘bank transfer’ method where the transfer slip is pre filled by the webshop (payment amount, order info, bank account seller). Is there anyone who is familar with the issue whether you can implement other payment methods to Deal Plazza instead of PayPal? Or is Deal Plazza functionality depending PayPal functionality / integration?

Hi Marcel, That’s a tough question. You will have to contact TemplatePlazza. There is a forum for pre-sales so you can ask questions before you actually buy. Sorry to be deferring you to them, but they can probably answer your questions much better than I. Thanks for your visit, Elaine.

Hi Marcel, I was looking through the Joomla 1.5 extensions and found the cciDeal extension. You can install the iDeal extension for Virtuemart to accept payments in the Netherlands. You can find this extension in the Joomla.org extensions directory. Thanks, elaine

I believe the Deals Plazza is compatible for Joomla 1.5, so you need to delete your current Joomla installation and install Joomla 1.5 instead of Joomla 1.6. Afterwards you can use the post here to help you install your Joomla 1.5 template. Then you will need to activate your Joomla 1.5 template – see the post here.

Thanks for your visit and let me know if you need any additional help, Elaine

Hi Elaine, Should I use hosting domain or VPS to build up my site? My site intends to serve around 3.000 to 5.000 visitors a day. Which one is easier to administrate and maintenance? Please help me Loi

Hi Loi, I have never used VPS so I cannot comment on whether which one is better. I do prefer Fatcow.com they are extremely easy to use. They have small business package which reliable. On top of that you have unlimited bandwidth, storage, email and 24×7 support with a money back guarantee. I think all these offers combined make Fatcow.com a pretty reliable webhosting provider. If you don’t live in the states/canada, you can also look into Godaddy webhosting services. Thanks for your visit, Elaine

Hi Miles, Templatic site is different form Dealsplazza. Dealsplazza is a Joomla 1.5 template by TemplatePlazza. I don’t recommend that though. From what I’ve heard the service is not that great. Templatic provides all Wordpress Themes. Thanks, Elaine

I love this theme and am trying to set up a Groupon clone site for local businesses. My problem is that I can’t change the tagline (where it says: “People would normally want to add a SEO / copy here. And it will go with a nice tagline, subtitle or whatever. Just below the main copy.”) On Templatic site it says it’s in the theme options SEO section but I’ve changed that with no change to the site. I’ve just spent hours searching for the answer and going through the theme’s files. Any help much appreciated.

Have you tested the templatic product with physical products yet? I run several daily deal (physical products) sites on another platform that, while easy to use are horrible in regards to SEO, difficult to customize and have only integrated with two affiliate managers. If I could find a wordpress template that would do it all I would be more then happy to buy through your link…
